Many aspects of railway modelling are the same whatever scale you choose, but N Gauge has particular benefits: namely, that there is more space for scenery, longer trains and extensive fiddle yards. This leads to specific challenges in the design and layout to ensure a realistic-looking model. Assuming some familiarity with the basics of N Gauge, Advanced Modelling in N Gauge provides guidance and instruction to extend and develop modelling skills to produce a layout that is scenically impressive: planning baseboards, integrating scenery with the backscene, and keeping everything in harmony. Topics covered include: ·Constructing baseboards and scenery ·How to make models of real buildings, to add character to your layout ·Building, painting and finishing rolling stock from kits and adding detail to ready to run models; ·Different systems for moving vehicles and controlling them ·Explanations of the various methods of automation and control ·What is needed to make a successful exhibition layout and how to perform demonstrations
